Edited by world renown experts with contributions by a global cohort of authors, Auditory-Verbal Therapy: Science, Research, and Practice is highly relevant to today’s community of practitioners of Auditory-Verbal Therapy (LSLS Cert. AVT), and to those who are working towards LSLS Cert. AVT certification. It is also an excellent resource for audiologists, speech-language pathologists, teachers of children who are deaf or hard of hearing, administrators, psychologists, cochlear implant surgeons, primary care physicians, social workers, and other allied health and education professionals. Although written primarily for practitioners, it will be a welcome resource for parents, family members, and other caregivers who love children who are deaf or hard of hearing, and for whom the desired outcomes are listening, spoken language, and literacy.
The book is divided into five parts:
Part I: Overview of Auditory-Verbal Therapy: Foundations and Fundamentals
This section covers the philosophy, history, and principles of AVT, including outcome data, results of a new survey of LSLS Cert. AVT community on global practice patterns in AVT, information on auditory brain development, and evaluation of evidence-based and evidence-informed practice for the new decade.
Part II: Audiology, Hearing Technologies, and Speech Acoustics, and Auditory-Verbal Therapy
This section covers audiology and AVT, hearing aids, implantable and hearing assistive devices, and in-depth speech acoustics for AVT.
Part III: Developmental Domains in Auditory-Verbal Therapy
This section covers the development of listening, three-dimensional conversations, speech, play, cognition, and literacy, as applied to AVT.
Part IV: The Practice of Auditory-Verbal Therapy
Here strategies for developing listening, talking, and thinking in AVT are covered, including parent coaching, the AVT Session: planning, delivery and evaluation, music and singing, assessment, and inclusion of “AVT children” in the regular preschool.
Part V: Extending and Expanding the Practice of Auditory-Verbal Therapy
The final section includes information on children with complex hearing issues, children with additional challenges, multilingualism, children and families experiencing adversity, tele-practice, coaching and mentoring practitioners, and cost-benefit of AVT.
Reviews
“Auditory-Verbal Therapy: Science, Research and Practice provides valuable and updated knowledge on key aspects of the foundations of auditory-verbal-therapy, auditory development, the intervention, and the evidence behind it. Furthermore, the book highlights important discussions of the auditory-verbal approach including how to plan the intervention both in-situ and by tele practise, how to coach parents/caregivers, how to work diagnostically by use of on-going assessment and monitoring of the child’s development. It is appreciated that the book includes discussions of all types of clinical challenges such as children with ANSD, single-sided deafness, soft failure of internal electrodes for children with cochlear implants and not least addresses issues regarding children with additional needs. These areas are important to highlight and discuss as they are understudied in the international literature. This book makes a substantial contribution in a highly warranted area."

"Together, [this] massive work effectively summarizes auditory-verbal practice, highlights specific challenges to service providers that have hindered access to care for many in the past, and presents valuable solutions and examples. Any clinician or caregiver interested in the latest clinical and academic trends in auditory-verbal therapy should consult this resource."
—Hillary Ganek, PhD, CCC-SLP, LSLS Cert. AVT, Assistant Professor at Western University, in Canadian Audiologist (Vol. 8, Issue 1, 2021)
